Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. From Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain (1880-1932), the writer of the feminist utopian fantasy 'Sultana's Dream', come these tales of gumptious wit, describing the twists and turns of India's two-hundred-year relationship with the imperial British. Freedom Fables begins with the two eponymous fables, both compact in form but temporally vast. The first story 'Muktiphal' (translated in this volume as 'The Freedom Tree') traces the rise of and divisions within India's Congress party. 'Gyanphal' or 'The Tree of Knowledge', the second fable, begins in the Garden of Eden and moves swiftly to an idealised Kanakadwipa where a trading company beguiles the prosperous country and proceeds to ruin it. Throughout both, the fantastic floats easily over mere facts. Adam and Eve, the Almighty, djinns, paris, demons, and Mayavi magicians: these classic characters play decisive, intriguing roles. These major political satires are accompanied in this edition by six essays and two poems, which the intrepid Hossain wrote over a period of seventeen years. Interwoven through her writings are ideals that endure even today: education and emancipation for women, dignity for those living in the subcontinent, and freedom from colonial rule and influence.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - One of the first science-fiction utopian stories and one of the first feminist utopias by celebrated pioneering feminist, educator, activist, and Bengali writer Rokeya Hossain A Penguin Classics Edition Sultana, a Muslim woman living in colonial India, falls asleep and wakes up in a transformed future world: a utopia in which men rather than women are relegated to the domestic sphere. Women, now free to explore the outside world at will and pursue an education, run a peaceful and just society, using scientific principles to harvest energy from the sun and live in harmony with nature. Sultana's Dream was published in 1905 in the Indian Ladies Magazine, the first English language periodical edited by, and targeted at, Indian women. Like the periodical, the story broke new ground. As a pioneering work of science fiction and feminist utopian literature at the turn of the century, Sultana's Dream is strikingly advanced in its critique of patriarchy, war, industrialization, and the exploitation of the natural world, speaking to the concerns of our contemporary world as much as its own. At a time when British colonialism was using the treatment of women in India as justification for colonial intervention there, Hossain's story, in imagining a world in which men rather than women are kept inside, positions her protest against Islamic patriarchy within a larger feminist vision that takes on Western as well as Islamic forms of gender hierarchy. Her novella Padmarag is similarly utopian in its depiction of a women-run school and welfare center, and is both feminist and anti-colonial in its outlook. In both these works, Hossain seizes the critique of gender roles in India away from Western commentators and turns it against British interference, while also enlarging the critique to take on the problem of gender more broadly.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Este libro os presenta dos obras claves de la ciencia ficción feminista de principios del siglo XX escritas por Begum Rokeya. 'En El sueño de la sultana la fuerza del éxito del país feminista es la educación de las mujeres. Rokeya hace especial hincapié en la importancia de que las mujeres se familiaricen con la ciencia y condena el militarismo de los hombres. Como fábula, su trama es inteligente con una clara moraleja. Padmarag nos presenta una compleja utopía educativa y filantrópica. En ella, Rokeya nos muestra que todas las mujeres, ya sean hindúes, brahmanas, musulmanas o cristianas, blancas o negras, son víctimas de la opresión patriarcal. Basándose en su propia experiencia como directora de entidades educativas, nos ofrece un relato irónico de los múltiples problemas y nos muestra, además, un conjunto de mujeres comunes que intentan en su vida cotidiana crear una utopía en el mundo'.
